There are many possible designs for a magnetic track for Quantum Levitation. Remember these 3 simple rules:
1. The magnetic field should cover as much of the levitator area as possible ; more flux pinning == stronger locking.
2. You need at least two opposite fields penetrating the superconductor. This will give the levitator lateral stability.
3. Assemble the magnets along the track as close as you can to get the field as homogeneous as possible. This will ensure a smooth frictionless ride.
